America's Favorite Pastime is here once again in Singapore minus the Davidson sunflower seeds and Bazooka bubble gum (not sold in Singapore).

I am currently playing on the Singapore Typhoons in the Singapore Baseball League comprised of 10 teams. This is my 2nd season with the Typhoons with a new look and some new prospects.

Our team has players from the U.S.A., Canada, France, Italy, China, Malaysia, Taiwan, Czechoslovakia, Australia, Vietnam, Phillipines, Korea, Japan and Singapore... talk about multicultural. Awesome!


Waiting for the pick off at 1st base... waiting and waiting... just in case.
